Dammit, I really need more time. I’ve barely caught up on sleep, there’s liquor undrunk, and I still haven’t purged my body of the high fat stuff we… ummm… stuffed ourselves with. Four days is not enough, we need to do the French “permanent vacation” approach to work. Are you with me?
Birthdays today include someone who was far, far ahead of xis time; a guy who had an effect on us all; a dude who was like totally tubular; a mere Christian; a decidedly non-heroic mulatto who was crooked even by congressional standards; one of the great composers of the 20th century; a C&W guy from the golden age of C&W; the one who couldn’t sing; a guy known for discovering talent and who was kicking ass well into his eighties; a guy I referenced numerous times yesterday; the Pride of Mega-Lo-Mart; a woman that Teddy Kennedy didn’t kill; one of my absolute favorite filmmakers; and an authoritarian piece of shit who will probably get retreaded during the Biden administration.
Enough of that, let’s see what’s happening nowadays:

More institutional racism from the police.

Each week I think I can’t get more over this covid stuff, and each week I get proven wrong.
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Faulting inaction in Washington, governors and state lawmakers are racing to get pandemic relief to small-business owners, the unemployed, renters and others whose livelihoods have been upended by the widening coronavirus outbreak.
Well, considering that it wasn’t “Washington” that prohibited people from going to work and earning money, maybe governors and state legislatures should step up to the plate.
More like step up to the gallows. Or guillotine. Or chopping block.
Heh. Though I could see an argument that since much of business goes through major cities in a few states, even if only those states had closed down it could lead to effects across the nation.
In other words NY deserves to bail out the rest of the country.
Trump’s ineptitude at whipping the virus made them do it.
That’s a short summary of their entire argument.
“a woman that Teddy Kennedy didn’t kill; ”

“Even as cases have exploded across the country, Congress and the president have not yet passed much-needed relief for people,” Colorado Gov. Jared Polis said in announcing the session. “Here in Colorado, we want to do the best with what we have to take care of our own.”

“It’s just heartbreaking what they’re allowing to happen with no federal government intervention,” said Washington state House Speaker Laurie Jinkins, a Democrat.
Send in the National Guard to force the governors to end the lockdowns and superstitious plague theater? I concur.
The surge in COVID-19 cases in Arizona have university researchers urging state leaders to implement a 3-week shelter-in-place order and statewide mask mandate.
The University of Arizona’s COVID Modeling Team sent a letter Friday to the Arizona Department of Health Services.
These people are evil.
“The surge in COVID-19 cases in Arizona have university researchers urging state leaders to implement a 3-week shelter-in-place”
Did their model assume 100% compliance?
I want to see these models before we are ruled by them, they need to be attacked and put to the test be hostile review. The scientists and politicians behind them acting aghast that anyone would question them are simply nefarious.
This covid thing had made me even more sure that any (esp. climate) scientist who won’t share models and data are lying.
Don’t you know that scientists are pure of heart and never, ever put their knowledge to evil uses. Oh wait, that only applies to scientists on the public payroll, corporate science is chock full of evil.
Government is the holy force that sanctifies money.
…unholy force that steals your money…
You wouldn’t be able to get the model to work. They require hand-finessing by experts to get the proper results.
You know who else is an expert at hand-finessing models?
Robert Kraft?
By the time you carve out the essential workers and the total inability to enforce it, a shelter in place order is just a press release announcing a new theatrical production.
“Katie Baez, Whitaker’s sister, said Thursday was the first time her family had Thanksgiving Day without her brother. She said the expected payout will not replace her brother and the loss of love.”
Then make a deal where you sue for $1, and they admit guilt, and the officer is charged for capital murder as part of the bargain.
*SLD- I concur that the family should wring every penny out of the taxpayer’s and the city’s insurance that they can. But if you’re making the argument that “its not about the money”, then prove it
The cop has immunity so that deal can’t happen.
I dont know about AZ, but even Ohio has limits on it. The Ray Tensing – Sam DuBose case showed that a cop can still be held criminally liable for misconduct. However, the powers-at-work know this (say, elected officials and prosecutors that count on the FOP support) and (IMO) deliberately overcharged in that case, as insurance he wouldn’t be guilty.

Old joke
Cowboy 1: “All West Texas needs is water”
Cowboy 2: “That’s all Hell needs, too”
If I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell ― Sheridan.
Yeah, the big time drought in the 50s closed down a lot of small West Texas towns. Permanently changed the landscape, too. Many wells, springs, and creeks went permanently dry, mesquite took over hundreds of square miles, etc.
So this is a good run through on all of the complaints about the election.
It comes down to MI, WI and GA – doesn’t include PA. And interestingly the whole story is on the vote counts (and reporting) – no assertions of vote fraud itself.
Our analysis finds that a few key vote updates in competitive states were unusually large in size and had an unusually high Biden-to-Trump ratio. We demonstrate the results differ enough from expected results to be cause for concern.
The fact that it only happened in key swing states is very suspicious too. (Georgia used to not be one but due to the growth of Atlanta I guess it is considered up for grabs now.) You don’t see the spikes in deep blue states or deep red states. Well, if you were adding fraudulent ballots to tip an election, you would target close contests.
It’s very wordy way of saying this election smells worse that the bottom of the dumpster at a fishmongers shop.
Here’s another article on the subject. https://spectator.us/reasons-why-the-2020-presidential-election-is-deeply-puzzling/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
I don’t get how any of this is controversial. OF COURSE they cheated; they had to. You know they were up against someone LITERALLY WORSE THAN HITLER. Is it “by any means necessary” except voter fraud? There’s been one side consistently against any sort of vote security at all and pushing for more and more mail-in bullshit with no chain of custody. Not to mention abolishing the EC to make winning by fraud much easier overall.
The punchline: nothing will happen and this is the way things are now. Time to get over the fact that we have a third world voting system now.
Many third world voting systems are more secure than ours. ::holds up inky thumb::
What’s funny is, how they knew the media would have their backs and they were so blatant about it. They didn’t even lift a finger to campaign. If nothing happens, we are maximally screwed.

Hate speech, twatsplained
TW: Vox
Parler, which has been around since 2018, looks at first glance a lot like Twitter and Facebook. Open the app, there are profiles pushing doubt about the 2020 election’s results and declarations that the mainstream tech platforms are targeting free speech. With just a few clicks, it’s easy to find even more extreme right-wing voices and hate speech. Overall, the site appears like an amalgamation of some of the most odious factions of social media, centralized on one platform that’s attracted millions of users.
——-
As it’s grown, Parler has become a way station for hate speech and misinformation that Twitter and Facebook wouldn’t allow. The site is also where many Trump supporters are spreading the false narrative that the 2020 presidential election was rigged. The burgeoning influence of Parler is part of a broader trend of fringe outlets like One America News and Newsmax hoping to reel in an audience of Trump loyalists, especially after he leaves office.
——-
But despite the recent attention, some say the rise of Parler fits into the larger history of American conservatives and their relationship with the media.
“This follows a pattern of what the right wing has done [since] the rise of talk radio in the ’80s, and then through live cable TV, and then the rise of social media,” Lawrence Rosenthal, the chair of the University of California Berkeley’s Center for Right-Wing Studies, told Recode. “In each case, what you found is that the right wing gives up on participating in mainstream media and creates an alternative universe.”
And so on and so forth. Anything not universally approved by left wing media gatekeepers is odious fringe paranoia and racism.
Parler is making hate great again.
People who get abused by one site will migrate to another site where they aren’t abused? Who could have seen that coming?
““In each case, what you found is that the right wing gives up on participating in mainstream media and creates an alternative universe””
Gives up. Gets banned. Tohmato tahmato.
It’s fun to see the left get worked up over the alternatives that are friendly to conservatives because they don’t like anyone leaving their control.
Their arrogance is like derp. It is infinite.
Blah blah blah.
Who gives a flying fuck what Vox thinks?
They’re a joke.
An alarmingly large number of people do. That’s the problem.
I keep seeing their banner ads for “the value of explanatory journalism.”
Explanatory journalism?
No thanks. I can make up my own mind.
Berkeley has a Center for Right-Wing Studies? ?
They’re very busy, between Hitler and the candidacy of Mitt Romney.
Scroll through the platform, and content ranges from standard Republican talking points to conspiracy theories and hate speech. Recode identified users of the site promoting Holocaust denialism, Nazism, QAnon, and all sorts of other offensive content. Parler has also become a home for an alleged Russian disinformation campaign, which the platform said it would not take down because it hadn’t heard from US law enforcement.
“When you have this sort of mingling, and common cause, between extremists and non-extremists, I think that’s what makes it a bit different and unique,” said Oren Segal, the vice president of the ADL Center on Extremism. Segal says that he doesn’t think the platform itself is extremist, but that it does allow such content to proliferate.
“You have certain elements on the platform that talk about stolen elections and illegitimate elections and disinformation or misinformation more broadly,” Segal explained. “That is not only animating some of those who are on the platform who are not extremists, but it’s actually the lifeblood of extremists.”
It’s like subliminal advertising. You go to Parler looking for Ted Cruz’ explanation of a vote, and before you know it, you’re a foaming-at-the-mouth white supremacist.
These demented stains on humanity really do want a cleansing, don’t they?
Linking those who think this election was a bit fishy and Holocaust denialism is a nice touch. The ADL is nothing but a radical leftist front group with a yarmulke.
“The ADL is nothing but a radical leftist front group with a yarmulke.”
Hello, I’m the entirety of the Reform Judaism movement. How may I help you?
The problem it’s that the mainstream has adopted an extremist ideology that all deviant thought must be eradicated. These “anti-extremist” groups are wofully inept way combating extremism, because they refuse to even give the people who flock to it a second of time. They won’t listen to the legitimate and illegitimate concerns of people, but constantly condescend, and demonize them.
If I was wearing a tin foil hat I’d say they do it on purpose to foment unrest and get donations.
And herein lies the issue: all those people you “deplatform” aren’t disappearing. Take a young man (and they’re typically young men) with squishy non-leftist views and keep chasing him further and further underground, eventually he will start adopting truly extremist views.
Ask the Middle East what happens to young, alienated men with extremist views.
Yup. And not to get on the “wo is the plight of the young man”, but there are reasons for it. The modern high school graduate had spent 12 years being educated by an establishment that treats any form of boyishness and growth into masculinity with hostility. Young men do not have the tools or training to be men.
And this falls on older men too who have failed to properly mentor the younger generation.
I had this realization the other day that part of the reason why there is such an urge by the young to share and be an internet staff is that those are the people that they have constantly been exposed too. So that is the role model for them. The YouTube star is the modern Rockstar.
The modern high school graduate had spent 12 years being educated by an establishment that treats any form of boyishness and growth into masculinity with hostility.
That’s been noted for a while, now. The government school systems in particular treat boys like dysfunctional girls. How much this has to do with said schools be run by and for women is up for debate.
And this falls on older men too who have failed to properly mentor the younger generation.
For too many older men, they can only get their mentoring done one weekend a month and two weeks during the summer.
For too many older men, they can only get their mentoring done one weekend a month and two weeks during the summer.
That’s just steering them into becoming nasty girls.

Congrats to you and GT! Next month is 29 for us.
Time flies, man.
So apparently there was a ruling that throwing out a bunch of late, or error-filled, or unreadable ballots constitutes “disenfranchising” voters.
If you flip that coin, doesn’t that mean you are disenfranchising the people who voted on time and filled out their ballots correctly and legibly?
I hate ass-backwards reasoning.
Ok, if late ballots are acceptable, I’d like to submit mine for the Bush v Gore race.
I can’t believe they would make such an absurd ruling. Obviously after Jan 20 is too late, so there is a hard cut off. Why not make it on election day?
I’d argue that it’s disengenouos to say that it is okay for courts, who have no authority, to change laws around the election that ends up disenfranchising voters by adding non-compliant ballots, but bad if the legislatures changed how the electoral votes are allocated after the election.
Doesn’t matter, all of these rulings regardless of which direction they go are just the paving stones on the road to the Supreme Court.
I don’t see how the Supreme Court is going to do anything. It’s the states’ business. If they want to allow unverified mail
in ballots, the state may do so. If the state wants no poll watchers they may do that as well. You lose the state battles you’ve already lost.
That disenfranchises the opposite voters. Equal protection is violated. The state can’t just pick a candidate via the election officials and proclaim them the winner against the wishes of half of the electorate. What would stop, say, California from declaring that all EC votes go the dem in perpetuity?
He’s cheating.

Colorado Democratic Gov. Jared Polis and his spouse have tested positive for Covid-19 and are both asymptomatic, according to a statement from the governor’s office.
“This evening, Governor Polis and First Gentleman (Marlon) Reis learned that they have tested positive for COVID-19,” the statement reads.
Both are feeling well and will continue to isolate in their home, according to the statement.
“Marlon and I are feeling well so far, and are in good spirits. No person or family is immune to this virus. I urge every Coloradan to practice caution, limit public interactions, wear a mask in public, stay six feet from others, and wash your hands regularly,” Polis said.
Perform the rituals. Believe the Gospel. Fear the plague gods.

“With no action by Washington, states race to offer virus aid”
How bout this dipshits? Let the business owners engage in commerce! It’s so crazy it might just work…
“Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham said the state took action to help residents ‘who have real issues about keeping food on their table, a roof over their head.'”
She is beyond a shitstain. Shut everything down in sooper-draconian fashion then blame the FedGov for not bailing out the people she’s preventing from working. It’s the embodiment of the prog wet dream; regulate all private enterprise out of existence and replace it with handouts from Big Daddy.
Based on the tone of that NPR article, I guess the Freemasons are just some right-wing nutjobs.
More: “How do you get the message of, yes, there is a place where you can go where people aren’t at each other’s throats, there’s a place that deliberately stops the kind of arguments that are making your life miserable.”
If people stop wanting to kill one another over politics, how will NPR and the rest of the agit-prop media get any eyeballs!?! We can’t have that! Time to label them white supremacist and be done with it.
I’d like to be a Mason but I am kind of burned out on being in / managing the decline of failing organizations. One of my friends is a Shriner, one of his jobs is tracking down all their little cars and such that belong to the org but guys die and their kids or widows sell or junk them. He had to go to court because the guy that kept the semi died and they weren’t allowed to retrieve it, was a 15+ year ordeal, it was just sitting and decomposing in a field with 50 cars in it.
The governors of Nevada, Virginia and Missouri have all tested positive for the virus in recent months, underscoring the scale of the spread of the virus across the nation.
Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak, a Democrat, tested positive for Covid-19 earlier this month. In September, Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, a Democrat, and his wife tested positive, as did Missouri Gov. Mike Parson, a Republican, and his wife.
The US death count from coronavirus has risen to more than 266,000 deaths as of Saturday, as cases continue to surge across the country. A fresh wave of restrictions has been put in place in communities across the nation in an attempt to slow the spread.
Those governors and their families- all dead, right?
No one escapes. No one survives.
Only the Republican ones.
The Democrats offered animal sacrifices to SCIENCE, the blood cleansing them of their sins and were healed.
So I watched the Netflix series Barbarians last night. If you haven’t, don’t bother. Very heavy on the melodrama/fictional personal lives of the characters with only a touch of truth behind it. And the Battle of Teutoburg Forest, the only thing that could have saved the series was completely wasted(SPOILERS!!!) on shitty movie-geared close ups of hand to hand/individual combat battles that looks nothing like real battle 2000 years ago. Add in an emotional speech delivered to a severed head weirdly spliced through the battle scenes and the whole thing degenerated into an absolute shitshow.
I think the whole ancient rome through medieval times genre is burning itself out thanks to Netflix. How many series can they make?
‘How many series can they make?’
As many that can still squeeze some money out of the waning popularity of Game of Thrones?
shitty movie-geared close ups of hand to hand/individual combat battles that looks nothing like real battle 2000 years ago
I’m pretty sure armies, as they closed with one another, split off individually to drop their spears and duel enemy soldiers one on one with sidearms.
Realism doesn’t get views, overchoreographed Hollywood bullshit does.
An overchoreographed pike formation or Roman testudo could be quite dramatic. Also imagine an overhead view of any two ancient armies front ranks closing in a historically accurate way. It would be unforgettable. Hollywood is just full of mediocre know-nothings.
So much this. Add a few cut scenes of the main characters in critical points of impact in a battle but otherwise keep the cameras on the grand scale. It works beautifully as a visual while playing games like Total War, so why wouldn’t it work in a cinematic setting?
‘An overchoreographed pike formation or Roman testudo could be quite dramatic.’
There was a small battle near the beginning of the film The Eagle that had a cool, if not really historically accurate for the situation, testudo scene. It would have been really cool to see on a larger scale.
It’s the only honorable thing to do, I hear.

I don’t expect them to go calmly back into living harmoniously with others. They’ve been so stoked up by Dem activists in order to help take Trump down, or to participate in BLM activities, shout down pro-Liberty speakers, etc, that they can’t just switch it off.
The howler monkeys, now victorious in the election and thus not having any real complaints or anxieties, will just overreact to increasingly mundane “offenses” such as racistly mispronouncing VP Harris’s name, or finding any company or institution that doesn’t have sufficient diversity.
How dare these uppity Jooz do such a thing?!

Why won’t they just sit back and accept nuclear destruction as punishment for their Nazi policies like the UN prescribes?
I’m sure the Biden administration will send Iran a gift basket as soon as possible so that we can return to looking the other way when Iran shirks its commitments re: nuclear program, funding Hezbolla, etc.
It’s what Val Jar would have wanted…
Extraordinary detail about Fakhrizadeh’s final moments have been revealed by Iranian journalist Mohamad Ahwaze who claims he received leaked information from the country’s authorities.
/checks sources
OK, so clearly legit.
I just assumed it was a roving gang of rival nuclear scientists.
Shut the fuck up.

LOL of course.
What a bitch.
All these great conservative icons did their duty and made sure their children are all Leftist creeps.
They did what they had to do in order to gain power and wealth, so that their children could be raised in and be a part of gentle society.
Finally, Old Guy Music gets it right. Good tune.

Cracks appear?
A judge has denied the Gallatin City-County Board of Health’s request for a temporary restraining order against the Rocking R Bar and set a date for a hearing in the lawsuit between the two entities.
Gallatin County District Court Judge John Brown denied the request on Friday. He set the hearing for 9 a.m. on Dec. 15 in Gallatin County District Court.
The county board of health filed a lawsuit earlier this week against the Rocking R Bar because the bar was intentionally remaining open past 10 p.m. Both the county board of health and outgoing Gov. Steve Bullock’s most recent round of pandemic-related restrictions require bars to close at that time.
Previously, the mandated closing time was 12:30 a.m. Rocking R Bar owner Mike Hope told Bozeman Police Department Capt. Andy Knight that he was going to remain open until that time despite the newer order, according to court documents.
The temporary restraining order would have required the bar close at 10 p.m. and would have lasted for 10 days. Brown denied the request because the board’s complaint did not clearly show that the county will “suffer immediate and irrepressible injury” if the temporary restraining order was not issued.
Can’t you see? Wholesale death and destruction! Bodies piled in the streets! How dare you not bow down before the priests of the plague gods?
who is this Gallatin fella ?
So.
I just saw a trailer for “Uncle Frank” on Amazon about the supposed plight of gay people coming out to their bigoted, evil families that should be reeducated/shot (I’m filling in a few plot points here, but I’m sure they’re accurate).
The funny thing is: this takes place during the ’70/’80s. Last I heard, that was ~40 years ago. Now, I’m not gay. Anyone who’s hung around here for any length of time knows that I am, through no fault of my own, aggressively not gay. Clearly, I have no problems across the board how people like to get their jollies. My question(s): Is it really necessary to travel back in time to have passion plays about coming out/is coming out still so fraught with emotional landmines as it was 40 years ago? I have a hard time believing that any but a tiny minority of people nowadays give a shit about it.
It’s a warning that Trumpist hate still has a grip on half of America.
Uncle Frank is actually a pretty good movie, IMO. YMMV.
I’ve got a friend who was disowned by her family when she came out. It still happens.
It happened, it was reality for a lot of people. There’s nothing wrong with revisiting the past.
However, one thing I do find annoying is that that we’re supposed to believe that today’s woke assholes and slavers would have been the understanding, tolerant, anti-slavers in the past. Yeah, right.
Yeah, look at how they treat Peter Thiel.
Flipping through radio stations early this morning, I learned a few things:
1. Early Sunday is apparently when most stations do their PSA broadcasting.
2. COVID is supposedly airborne, and mostly transmitted indoors on very tiny aerosols, not the droplets masks are supposed to stop.
3. The Governor has issued a stay at home order, asking everybody to stay indoors. ?♂️
Oh, and
4: We should wear masks in spite of #2, even though they are admittedly less than 100 percent effective. (True, 0% is less than 100%, can’t argue with that.)
The Governor knows best
Local media is straying from the narrative.

But no worries, AP found some attention whore coroners to keep the fear alive.

The Rocking R Bar had also received over $71,000 in state COVID relief funds as of late October. Bullock has announced additional aid for businesses in financial tough spots because of COVID-19 related shutdowns, but has said that money will only be doled out to businesses that follow the mandates.
Only good little boys and girls get cake.
Good morning, Old Man!
The world continues to be retarded.
You People continue to be a bastion of hope. So thanks for that.
So the states are realizing that shutting down businesses has consequences. Should be fun to get the tax increases for 2021. My state is so breathtakingly brazen I’m sure it will be a size-able bump to property taxes to pay for the closed schools.
Bastards.
Oh well, let’s get out there and enjoy our Sundays, huh?
It was a nice weekend. Worked in the garage a bit, put up some Christmas stuff.
Got to do some oil changes on the generator, hang some ceiling in the grooming trailer later today.
Regardless of the world around me, it is a good day.
Had myself a Bloody Maria, now I might just head down the hill to the liquor store and pick up some Asahi. Just for the helluvit.
Had a light breakfast, getting ready to walk up to the local bar to watch the Browns play. Have to go back to work tomorrow (not the office, just work), but at least I’ve still got a job that’s paying me.
Ugh that reminds me..have to go in two hours early tomorrow.
I’ve already triple checked that all my alarms are turned back on again.
From a Bozeman Chronicle I won’t bother linking:
The Rockin’ R will have its sympathizers among those who have objected to mask mandates and other orders claiming they amount to a violation of rights. But the national and state constitutions and the laws emanating from them clearly and rightfully empower health officials to impose restrictions in the interest protecting public health.
Constitutional scholars, they are.
I wonder how they would react if Trump’s Department of Justice ordered the newspaper shut down, in the interests of public order and national security.
Bullshit.
It is worth questioning one’s local constitution. I have no doubt that most of the immoral actions by my governor were legal, and it is at least partly my fault that he has retained so much power over the years. I live in one of the freest states, but it could be freer.
Maybe State Constitutions in which the legislature debated and voted on such measures, sure. However that isn’t how it is going about.
The issue at hand is the generous readings of their govorner’s emergency powers that have been taken to extraordinary limits.
Chronicle editorial, that is.
The Bee is going to have a fantastic 4-years.
If things go the way the commies want, the Bee staff will off to the gulags or unmarked graves in short order.
However, one thing I do find annoying is that that we’re supposed to believe that today’s woke assholes and slavers would have been the understanding, tolerant, anti-slavers in the past. Yeah, right.
They are independent thinkers, on the right side of herstory, not hive-mind drones. They would never succumb to peer pressure and the consensus of the day.
In order to get my blood pressure up I watched some of the Sunday lefty news propaganda on the two big networks. Margaret Brennan who is just barely more tolerable than that asshole Chuck Todd interviewed the mayors of Detroit and Houston. The mayor of Detroit was blaming the big increase in the plague in Detroit on people who live in the suburbs – they weren’t wearing the mask and spread it into the city. Brennan brought up the fact that the coof is more fatal to POC and given that would that change the priority of who receives the vaccine. He wouldn’t take the bait.
Same with the mayor of Houston. Brennan brought up that Hispanics are more likely to die from the plague and would that change his priority on who should get the vaccine when it becomes available. He didn’t take the bait either.
Then she asked this stupid question? Is the there already a shortage of vaccine?
NBC’s Kacy Hunt has a scary looking face… something about her eyes.

Strange story on its face. A dozen armed people and they rob a makeshift kitchen then destroy it? I don’t buy it’s random criminals. Either antifa ownsides factionalism or anti-antifa stepping up the game a bit more.
When your city has turned a blind eye to this type of behavior it empowers others to engage in it. We stepped back into the time of ruffians and bandits.
I think there’s far more lucrative targets for a dozen armed criminals.
Yeah, nobody “robs” a homeless food tent. It was either that they were harassing the kitchen to try and shut them down, or the kitchen just wanted some sympathy and donations before they had to shut themselves down. Portland police are total retards and probably dedicated massive resources to find these dangerous bandits.
